Re-Inventing Evangelism for Ordinary Christians: Doable Evangelism!
SIGN UP HERE!
Saturday, February 25, 2012
9 a.m. to noon 
Bailey Hall - Union Presbyterian Church
Guest Speaker: Randy Seiver

The reality is that at best, only 10% of Christians have the “gift” of evangelism (and that would be a generous estimate). So where does that leave the rest…the ungifted, ordinary Christians? Pretty much on the sidelines watching and cheering the gifted few (and writing checks). This seems unacceptable to us.           

It’s time evangelism became a normal spiritual practice again, like reading your Bible or prayer, instead of another church program. After practicing what we call “ordinary attempts” (or OA’s), many people tell us that they feel “validated” and “empowered”, discovering that God counts things they already do. They can do more of that, with greater intention. That gets more people in the game…which is the whole mission of Doable Evangelism (DE). 

1) It is for everyone (including the 90% who are ordinary Christians)

2) It needs to be doable (no programs, pitches, personalities or presentations to memorize…phew!)

3) It has to be fun and natural (not weird…phew, again!)

How can we hear more?  Come to the Doable Evangelism Seminar on February 25^th.  The Session is urging the entire church to attend.

Food for Those in Need
Do not forget about the ongoing canned food drive. Barrels for your donations are in the entrance to the Sanctuary and in Bailey Hall. They get emptied periodically and taken to Community Services Agency where the food is distributed to those in need. Thank you!
